Welcome, Shackers, to the back end of October. We’re chugging along into the holiday season nonstop and it’s almost that very special time of year for Game of the Year and Award deliberations. We’ve still got plenty of fun coming in between, though, so buckle into for a couple more months while we close out this year proper. For now? It’s time to shut down another day of posting with your latest Evening Reading. Enjoy.

Pacific Drive is still high on my indie top 10 list this year. Very good game.
